Tricia Janine Helfer (born April 11, 1974) is a Leo Award winning Canadian actress and former model, best known for her role as Number Six in the 2003+ Battlestar Galactica miniseries and television series, as well as her role as "Carla" on Burn Notice. Helfer was born and raised in the rural community of Donalda in Stettler County, Alberta. She was raised on her family's grain farm and at the age of 17, while standing in line at a local movie theatre, she was discovered by modeling agency scout Kelly Streit. She is of German, French, Swedish and Norwegian descent. Tricia is best known for her work as a model in campaigns for Oil of Olay, Chanel's Cristalle perfume and some memorable Victoria's Secret lingerie assignments. As an actress, she portrayed Farrah Fawcett in a 2004 NBC movie of the week, and continues to play sexy cyborg Number 6 on the Sci Fi channel's revamped Battlestar Galactica series. Tricia's modeling career erupted in 1992 when the then 18-year-old won the Ford Supermodel of the World contest. She quickly rose to the top of the fashion game, appearing in major campaigns for Giorgio Armani, Saks Fifth Avenue and Victoria's Secret, to name but a few. She has appeared at shows for designers such as Oscar de la Renta, Claude Montana, Salvatore Ferragamo, Christian Dior, Givenchy, and Pierre Balmain. Helfer has also made the covers of fashion magazines like Elle (1993), Amica Italia (1996) and Cosmopolitan UK (1998). Tricia's rise in the world of acting hasn't been as rapid as her ascent through the ranks of the modeling business was. There have been some bright spots, such as the Battlestar Galactica miniseries, which premiered in 2003 to become the Sci Fi channel's third-most-watched program in their history. Her portrayal of Farrah Fawcett in the 2004 TV movie Behind The Camera: the Unauthorized Story of 'Charlie's Angels' may not have achieved equally impressive ratings, but it gave Tricia the opportunity to recreate the classic '70s Farrah poster, which hung in the bedrooms of thousands of males back in the day.
